  1. Chapter 8 Transaction Processing, Electronic Commerce, and Enterprise Resource Planning Systems

  2. TPS, MIS, DSS, and AI/ES • Hierarchy: Information AI/ES Less More Less More DSS Sophistication& complexity ofprocessing & analysis Decisionsupport Input & output Routine MIS TPS Data More Less More Less

  3. Transactions • Transactions… • Basic business operations such as customer orders, purchase orders, receipts, time cards, invoices, and payroll checks in an organization • Transaction processing systems (TPS) • Perform routine operations and serve as a foundation for other systems

  4. Batch vs. On-Line Transaction Processing • Two types of TPS: • Batch processing • A system whereby business transactions are accumulated over a period of time and prepared for processing as a single unit or batch • On-line transaction processing (OLTP) • A system whereby each transaction is processed immediately, without the delay of accumulating transactions into a batch

  8. Objectives of TPS • Process data generated by and about transactions • Maintain a high degree of accuracy • Ensure data and information integrity and accuracy • Produce timely documents and reports • Increase labour efficiency • Help provide increased and enhanced service • Help build and maintain customer loyalty • Achieve competitive advantage

  9. Simplified Overview of aTransaction Processing System Schematic

  10. Data entry & input Processing Documents& reports • Documents: • pick list • cheques to vendors • receiving notices • paycheques • Operational reports: • finished product inventory status • raw materials; packing materials; spare parts; inventory status Database • Internally generatedtransactions: • shipped orders • purchase orders • employee time cards • Externally generated transactions: • customer orders • vendor invoices • customer payments • Database update: • customer orders • inventory • purchase orders • customers • suppliers

  11. Data Processing Activities Common to TPSs • A transaction processing cycle • Data collection • Data editing • Data correction • Data manipulation • Data storage • Document production Schematic

  13. Source Data Automation • Source data automation • The process of capturing data at its source with minimal manual effort • Data are entered directly into the computer

  15. Control and Management Issues • Business resumption planning • The process of anticipating and providing for disasters. • Disaster recovery • The implementation of the business resumption plan. • Transaction processing system audit • An examination of the TPS in an attempt to answer three basic questions • Does the system meet the business need? • What procedures and controls have been established? • Are the procedures and controls being properly used?

  16. Traditional TPS – Order Processing • Order processing • Processing an order from entry to delivery, including traditional accounting transactions Schematic

  20. Order Processing Support Systems - Sales Configuration • Sales configuration • Ensures that products and services ordered are sufficient to accomplish customer’s objectives and will work well together

  21. Order Processing Support Systems - Shipment Planning • Shipment planning • A system that determines which open orders will be filled and from which location they will be shipped • E.g., (from Figure 8.9)

  22. Order Processing Support Systems - Shipment Execution • Shipment execution • A system that coordinates the outflow of all products and goods from the organization, with the objective of delivering quality products on time to customers

  23. Order Processing Support Systems - Inventory Control • Inventory control • A system that updates the computerized inventory records to reflect the exact quantity on hand of each stock keeping unit • Status reports • Summarize all inventory items in stock, or shipped over a specified period of time • E.g., see Figure 8.10

  24. Order Processing Support Systems - Invoicing • Invoicing • Generates customer invoices based on records received from the shipment execution TPS • E.g., see Figure 8.11

  25. Order Processing Support Systems - Customer Interaction System • Customer interaction • A system that monitors and tracks each customer interaction with the company

  30. Purchasing System • Inventory control • Maintains stock of items such as raw materials, packing materials, spare parts, and supplies • Purchase order (P.O.) processing • A system that helps purchasing department complete transactions quickly and efficiently • Receiving • A system that creates a record of expected and actual receipts • Reconciles purchase orders with what is actually received • Accounts payable • A system that increases an organization’s control over purchasing, improves cash flow • increases profitability, and provides more effective management of current liabilities
